nurse to every 5,000 students. and many believe that ould be a recipe for disaster, when it comes to stopping the spread of h1n1 on school campuses. >> this might sting a little bit. >> there are other reons school nurses are needed more than ever. >> the role of the school nurse has significantly changed over the years. school nurses treat scrapes bumps and bruises. but they also work the front lines of disease prevention. and these days, that can mean assessing and treating life threatening medical conditions. school nurses work with kids who have chronic illnesses. things like asthma and diabetes. seizures. they make sure those kids are healthy and ready to learn. >> and what happens to these -- children when they don't feel well. they go home. they are losing educational time. if there is a nurse in the building they can be evaluated. >> a 2008 survey by the national association of school nurses found that only 45% of public schools have their own fulltime nurse. another30% have a part-time nurse. and 25% of schools don't have

school nurses at all. the national association of school nurses also encourages every parent to ask their school administrator if there is a nurse on staff. many mes, there is not. come means school staff that may not be medically trained must handle health emergencies. >> laura ingle reporting. when you think of job security in a bad economy you might think labor unions are create stable for their members. but that is not always the case. some unions are not as powerful as they used to be when budgets are tig, contract negotiations get even tougher. when there is just no money. really not a lot to negotiate about. >> denver police officers clearly got the message. voting to delay pay raises scheduled for 2010 and 2011. mayor john hicken looper went to the police union with cap in hand. help the mile high city survive the recession or else. >> it would mean we would lay off somewhere around 90 police officers. >> in an open letter to the city council and taxpayers hick

suicidal. i think they can easily be replaced by people who, you know, would gladly work for $8 or $10 an hour, just to be off the streets. >> in fact, the stores tell us they have more applications for temporary workers willing to cross the strike line than they could ever use. it may never come to that. the union is now hoping to reopen negotiations. and the saveway and king soopers chain say they are considering it. new this morning, land fit for a king and up for sale. st.straight ahead we will let you know how much this ranch is going to set you back and who it once belonged to. all right. also, a shootout inside a bar captured on video. we will show you more of this dramatic footage coming up next on fox 5 morning news. it is 5:23 on this monday morning.

welcome back. 5:53. time to play monday morning quarterback with our man dave ross. i think the most disappointing thing about yesterday is after 10 minutes into the game redskins were on top and carolina looked like the worst football team in the league. they could not do anything -- right and i thought it would be the redskins day. >> another week of another team getting healthy at the expense of the washington redskins. and again steve this is an amazing thing. yesterday the redskins played pretty wl. i think a little bad luck played into this one. that is wha happens to bad teams. one thing goes against you and all of a sudden you can't find a way to win. you find a way to lose. let's take a look at highlights. it did start off very well for

the redskins. this is the first play of scrimmage. deangelo women gets popped. ball on the ground. nobody knows where it is. big albert haynesworth jumps on it and the redskins were in business. you had to like this. two plays later clinton portis for the the first time in forever -- >> like 5 years. >> since 2007, yeah. his first touchdown since week 17 of 2007. 7-0 skins. everything looking good. but then it started to turn. chris samuels on that play suffered a stinger and did not come back into the game. we will get a report later to see how he is. and then see here 7-6. goal line stand. this hurt. >> you can't have a safety there. you have to pull back and they run a stretch play. doesn't work. 7-2. then later you had the feeling it was going to come back to bite them. jonathan stewart bust it up inside. carolina scores the last 18 points of the game. erase a 17-2 deficit and the redskins lose again 20-17. it is tough to watch. when you have a 17-2 lead,.

>> yeah. >> i don't care haircare is it is you have to figure out how to win the game. the redskins did not. that is the job of jim zorn and his staff. right now hey are not getting it done. you have to wonder. this will be a long weekend at redskins park. i don't know where they go from here but not good. >> you saw where they went last week. they made a lot of changes. now they made those changes does that alter the who takes the blame status. >> all of a sudden they are going to go sherm lewis you're the offensive consultant. help us out. jim zorn you had a lead you didn't hold it. defense played well in spurts but again in the now, when they really needed to get a stop theyouldn't get one. so carolina was able to run out the last 6 minutes of the clock and, again, we're sitting her talking about a loss at 2-3. now the hard part of the schedule comes. one more quote unquote easy game next week against kansas city then it is nfc east, the big boys of football coming up. >> but it sounds like -- from post game coverage yesterday, it sounds like now at least the players there, they are not taking this kansas city team lightly.

we saw what they did with dallas but the players are saying hey, let's get this done. >> let's figure out how to get one win. the other thing i thought was interesting. listen to jim zorn after the game, is this team snake bit? here is what he has to say. >> well, i don't think we're jinxed. i think you know, you play the game the way it -- the way it falls. you know i felt like, we were -- we would move the ball and then there -- their defense got us a couple times. i think you know, our line did -- did a did he gent job but i could not with -- with -- did a good job but with battist this in there -- >> this is team snake bit. a crucial play in the fourth quarter on a punt. byron westbrook, watch his leg. it is just inadvertent right off of his leg. that's a fumble. that's a rule of the game. carolina gets it inside the 22. then score the game-winning

touchdown. hard to defend that but those things seem to happen to teams that lose. and that happened yesterday to the redskins. >> that is the whole snake bit thing. talk next hour dave ross. thank you very much. another straight ahead at 6:00 no -- more criticism over president obama being awarded the nobel peace prize. we will tell you who is talking about it now. and we will let you know which halloween mask is all the rage this year. and chel check out your monday morning commute and -- and we will egg check out your monday morning commute and -- and we will check out your monday morning commute and weather. if you want to know why your 3g coverage works so well
